  1. Glenda,
    I think this looks like an exciting way for me to learn to create variations to my blue print. If you have suggestions for a "track" to follow for me to build on beginning pattern making and design, I am completely open. As always, I am enjoying SFD as I have learned so much just with creating and working with the dress kit and pant kit. I cannot wait to get more confident so I can use the other kits I have for the family.

    1. Hi Laura, If you mean...'Where to begin?', I'd suggest designing a simple blouse. Look at the options in the Dress Kit Instruction book, decide on how you'd like CF to close, what length of sleeve you'd like...make some of these basic decisions. Also, there is an article to read on how to give yourself a little more ease for a blouse. Please read - D.4 Sizing up for more wearing ease & comfort - a blouse example in the SFD Learning Center in the Article Library.
      Kindly,
